Bathroom Renovation: Day 3

Today's job was to apply the Resin to the top of the countertop.   It's time to make it shine!

We used Famowood Glaze Coat from Lowes

It requires precise measuring

It also requires precise timing
Just pour it on...

Spread it out

Spread some more. Do it quickly!  You only have about 20 minutes before
you are in trouble and it will begin to harden.

Use the blow dryer to blow out any bubbles that form in
the resin.

Several hours later a shiny counter top!   

A close up.  
Supplies used on redoing the countertop:
7 bottles of craft paint
1 sea sponge
2 foam paint brushes
Famowood Glaze Coat Resin

Total Cost for Countertop $43.70.  Pretty Good!

Now we get started on the wood part of the vanity...

Mike also began to cut the moulding for the vanity.
Mike primed the moulding and glued it to the cabinet doors.

Remarkably, we did not need to go back to Lowes today :).   Normally during a project we have to go many times.   We will have to make a trip for some more moulding tomorrow though.

Stay tuned for more remodeling adventures!
